    Ive searched alot and havent found a solution. I have tried turning off virtual memory, and lowering the wait to timeout apps nothing has worked. I think it has to do something with my wireless drivers. My wireless icon says its disabled but Im on the internet right now. Tried installing drivers again but screen pops up says SERVER busy and it doesnt let me install.
    What should I do?

    Maybe uninstall and reinstall would help.

    I've stumbled across this issue myself once. I am using Vista Business x64 and when I updated to the latest NVIDIA drivers it took 5 minutes to log off :(. It happened once but seeing your post it makes me think it will happen again. Vista x86 or x64 has the same issue when it comes to drivers.

    I would recommend booting into safe mode (F8 while booting) and unistall your wireless drivers. Then reboot and reinstall the latest wireless drivers for your wifi card.
